I was arguing that point the other day, that it wasn’t a firearm. My reasoning was that it couldn’t be loaded or fired. Further I stated it was not an item that enhanced a gun’s function other than sound reduction, but I was wrong on that count.

Evidently the silencer disrupts the transition through the sound barrier and allows the projectile to move faster, further, and arguable more true to target.

If this is indeed true, then it is as integral to the gun as any other part that helps it function at optimum.

A screw is not a weapon, but it is part of one. I think the silencer could be considered the same way, only to a much higher level.

I disagree with the court here.

It seems to me the courts bend over backwards to side with the logic of the Left. We must stop that. Wish I knew how.

I thought that Texas passed a law that allowed ‘suppressors’.

If they can do it, why can’t other states?
